The problems it solved for you are immensely useful to you, but not remarkable IMO.

The problem it's solving is that it can do things that somebody with zero experience cannot. If you had an auto parts pro, or an EE, they probably could have done the same for you.

So, in general, AI is helpful because it has a much larger breadth of knowledge. Granted.

But I want examples of it doing depth, too.

My wife uses Lens when we fish. It's way, way worse than a fisherman with any experience at all.

Regardless, it is still far beyond a "failed idea" since it provides genuine value and achieves at a higher level than the average human for many topics. It isn't as you say better than an expert but the fact that for free I get something that works well is remarkable to me considering this is cutting edge technology.
Please read my premise again. I only called it a failed idea in the sense it could act as well as a human brain.

I said it's not a waste. Not at all, I use it in a lot of the ways you describe.
